A butterfly house, or conservatory is a facility which is specifically intended for the breeding and display of butterflies with an emphasis on education. Some butterfly houses also feature other insects and arthropods. Butterfly houses are owned and operated by museums, universities, non-profit corporations, and private individuals as part of their residence; as well as small businesses that are owner operated.
The pattern of butterfly parks is not new. In fact, such exhibits of butterflies were extremely popular in England by the year 1970. Penang Butterfly Farm in Malaysia was introduced on March 29, 1986; it was the tropical world's first creepy crawly and live butterfly haven. In the United States, the first butterfly stop, Butterfly World, opened in Coconut Creek, Florida in 1988.[1]
